Clay chimineas are made from kiln-fired clay that is coated with a waterproof layer to ensure long-lasting. They are made and fired in small local factories to help support the economy and communities of Mexico. They are fired kiln-fired at high temperatures to remove any water or organic material in the raw clay. This reduces the chances of the clay cracking due to thermal shock.
Many of our larger models have an area for cooking where you can cook food on the fire. This is a great feature for those that like to cook and entertain simultaneously. It will add a bit of fun and flavor to the meals you have with family and friends.
It is best to start with a small fire when you first start using your chiminea. Then gradually increase the size. This is because the clay acts as a radiator, and if you start with a
large chiminea fire, the temperature will rise too quickly. The clay could crack because it's not exposed to the heat.

Maintenance
Chimineas are constructed from clay, which is prone to cracking. While this is typically not a major issue, it can affect the appearance and performance of the chiminea. It is crucial to maintain the chiminea correctly to avoid this. This means cleaning it regularly and applying a sealant to protect it. Keep your chiminea in a safe place to prevent damage from extreme cold and moisture.
Careless handling is one of the main causes cracks in
chiminea outdoor fireplace. A chiminea is like a large piece of fine china, and it should be handled with care. Avoid dropping it, not letting it touch anything that can burn or fire it when it is hot. One dealer I spoke to said he did not guarantee his chimineas from breaking since they were frequently broken by careless handling before they were fired!
Using water to extinguish fires is another frequent reason for cracks in chimineas. Clay is sensitive to sudden temperature changes and pouring hot water on a clay chiminea could cause stress cracks and thermal shock. The best way to extinguish a chiminea is to allow the fire die naturally or to employ sand to extinguish it without risk.
When you purchase a new Chiminea, it is crucial to choose one that comes with an appropriate stand. It will be easier for you to clean, and it will look nicer in your garden.
Chimineas that do not have stands can be difficult to move, particularly when the weather is windy or rainy. You should also buy a poker to assist you in manipulate the logs and a brush to remove the ash and soot.
You should "cure" (break in) your chiminea slowly as you first buy it. Start with small fires and increase the size of logs gradually. In this period, the clay will become more resistant to cracks and more seasoned. A seasoned chiminea can provide a bigger and more controlled fire. After three or four small fires, you can start making full-size fires with confidence. However, it is important to monitor the size of your fire and to not allow it to become too big or get out of control.
